Once a Month Barn Pantry
Once a month, Barn Pantry Volunteers pack and deliver fresh produce, eggs, staples, paper goods, and Senior Boxes to 47 families in the West Chester area.
This isn’t charity—it’s communion. A shared table, a lighter burden, a quiet act of care.
New volunteers always needed and deeply appreciated.
April Update
Our Easter food delivery was held on Thursday, April 2nd. We wanted to make sure our families received their food in advance of the Easter holiday. The Food Bank truck arrived a little later than expected, but it was overflowing with produce! The wonderful turnout of CLS helping hands broke down the large boxes and bags of delivered produce, and the delivery bags were packed in a jiffy. The produce, whole frozen chickens, and side dishes were delivered along with $50 Shop Rite gift cards. The cards allowed our families to supplement their holiday meal. Our volunteers were met with big smiles and grateful hearts.
